I'm alternating between Clarins Eau Ensoleillante from last year, Victoria's Secret Pear Glace and Chanel Chance (which my sister didn't like and barely used before sending ot me. BONUS!).

Paul Smith Floral is the BEST summer perfume IMHO

BroccoliSpears · 22/07/2008 12:44

This season I will mostly be wearing Eu de Newborn. It had a fabulously rich pukey scent with delicious undertones of milk and wee, and a slight hint of sweet yellow poo and sweaty armpits.

Clarins Eau Ressourcante. I am tempted to treat myself to a Jo Malone, though, as have been wearing the Clarins for a few years now.

Chanel Chance Eau Fraiche (quite different to the normal Chance, which I don't like. Weird)

NomDePlume · 22/07/2008 12:47

I can't really do florals. They make me feel queasy. I like fresh, citrussy fragrances.

2cats2many · 22/07/2008 12:49

Same as I do in spring, autumn and winter- Knowing by Estee Lauder or Chanel No5.

WilfSell · 22/07/2008 12:51

See, NdeP, Paul Smith Floral is great because it's hardly floral at all...

2loudboys · 22/07/2008 13:06

Diorissimo - mmmmmmmmmmm

cardy · 22/07/2008 13:08

Blue Clarins. is that Clarins Eau Ressourcante? have both and get mixed up. Also been wearing D&G light blue which I think is very summery.

VictorianSqualor · 22/07/2008 13:23

I always wear the same perfume.

Red Door by Elizabeth Arden

cthea · 22/07/2008 13:25

Vera Wang Princess, was my wedding perfume and have just carried on wearing it.

maidamess · 22/07/2008 16:20

C K One. I get asked what I'm wearing all the time.

chocolatespiders · 22/07/2008 16:23

ghost- pure

but i need to smell this chance one asap!!

claireybee · 22/07/2008 16:25

I used to wear CK Truth but since having the dc it smells yuk on me and I haven't found any that suit me yet

drowninginlaundry · 22/07/2008 16:41

Annick Goutal Eau d'Hadrien
have been wearing it on and off for 7 years it's my all time fave

NorkyButNice · 22/07/2008 16:45

Marc Jacobs Grapefruit here - just wish they did it in a smaller bottle so I could slip it into my handbag. It's really fresh and clean smelling, just what I like for hot summer days.

Also have Daisy, but it's the most popular scent over here and everyone smells of it at the moment, so am waiting for the next big thing to come along so I can start wearing it again!

ScotsLassDownSouth · 22/07/2008 17:01

L'eau d'Issey summer fragrance and Clarins Eau Ensoleillante. Plus the Eau Ensoeillante body oil which has lovely glittery shimmery stuff in it (if that makes sense).

girlnextdoor · 22/07/2008 19:47

chanel no. 19 and Sisley Soire de lune
